Disabled people at the gym

I am big girl who like 2 exercise 3 times a week. I workout doing stetching rxercises & weights, I like & enjoy it, I makes me feel good after it.

I would like to share ideas with gym wheelchairs users

Hiya,
My illness keeps me in bed a lot and I also have to use a wheelchair when I am able to get up, so like yourself Im unable to do much exercises. So, I went and got a three pack of toning bands, and I have to say, they are really good.There is three different colour coded bands offering different levels of resistance. There is an insruction leaflet which shows you what exercises you can do with them.

Any Boots do them, and they are really cheap too.
Hope this helps...Good luck, Dedi.

Hi dedi. I have tried them bands. They are helpful of exercise but I find the gym workout better.

I belong to Aspire training centre in Stanmore, they have a gym. All the equipment can be used by either ABs or Dis. The benches can be moved so wheelchairs can access the machines. The staff are all really friendly and helpful as well.

Hi, yes the gym I go 2 the seats can be taken away from machines. I have my introductor help anytime I go. The staff are great.
